Visual Studio 2005: "Failed to find definition" Error

Description

When working with a Web Site project in Visual Studio 2005 you may get an error when re-naming control ID in design mode. Error message can be one of the following:

• Failed to find definition.
• The directory name is invalid.

The error may not happen if you don't have App_Code directory defined within your project.

Workaround

1. Navigate to the directory(找到以下路径,<%UserName%>为你的主机名)
../Documents and Settings/<%UserName%>/Local Settings/Application Data/Microsoft/WebsiteCache

2. Create a folder with the same name as the name of your project. (在刚才的WebsiteCache目录下查找以你工程名称的文件夹,若没有就以你当前报错的工程名称添加一个文件夹
